Venice is another Italian city crumbling under the weight of overtourism.

The report suggested the different locations should spread visitors out across the entire year, instead of dealing with huge hordes at certain times, such as the European summer.

It said: "While in some instances it makes sense simply to limit the number of visitors, for example, through a daily cap, we increasingly also see destinations establishing reservations and ticketing systems."

Tourists are being encouraged to visit lesser-known parts of popular holiday destinations in order to ease pressure on the busiest areas.

For instance, Iceland is promoting the town of Akureyri, which features waterfalls and hot springs, to ease the burden on other areas of the country.

Dubrovnik shot to fame after being one of the locations for Game of Thrones. Now the historic city is struggling to keep up with the sheer number of people wanting to visit.

Visit Britain has also been working to attract tourists out of London and into other parts of the country.

Certain places have attempted to introduce bans to deter any more holiday-makers - like a recent ban on any new tourist shops in Amsterdam.

But the report warned that should only be treated as an extreme last resort.

"Travel and tourism will only grow, creating new jobs, new opportunities, and new experiences, as well as being a force for peace in the world," the report said.

"But many destinations are struggling to strike the right balance of meeting the needs of businesses, local residents, and tourists."
